The Faucuier Homicide.

CORRESPONDENCE of the Alexandria Gazette.)
ORLEAN, March .27.-The negro boy with
whom Mr.. Philip Triplett had difficulty
on Monday night last, died on Friday night
Mr.. Triplett came and gave himself up to
the authorities An inquest was had yes,
terday, at least, post norton examination
was held. The inquest was postponed until
to-day, owing to the absence of an import
ant witness. The witness was found near
Jeffersonton last night by special consta-
bio and brought to this village, and the trial
by the coroner's jury wac proceeded with.
They decided that the boy came to his
death by missile thrown by MIR. Triplett.
Mr.. Triplett was bailed in the sum of 81 600
to appear at the next term of the county
court, and if no one appears against him
that would end the matter. Mr.. Triplett
has the mpathy Of a large number of the
citizens of the community in this unfortn
nate occurrence. DR.. Buck was the exam
lining physician. The following named gen.
tleman composed the jury: Messrs. Charles
Marshall, James Rixey, Ludwell Lake, VIM.
Quarles and two others whose names your
correspondent did not get. The negroes
are very much excited over the affair.
The circumstances of the difficulty were IS
follows, as far as We could get them from
the most reliable source: On Monday morn.
ing MIR. Triplett went to his barn lot, where
the deceased was milking his cows. The
boy struck one of the cows several times
with stick, and Mr.. Triplett told him to
desist. The boy replied By saying, "If you
can do the milking any better than I can,
you can do it." Mr.. Triplett told him if he
did not stop he would give him thrasbipg.
The boy said, eff you think you are bet.
ter man than am, pitch in" Mr.. Triplett
made at the boy, and the boy attempted to
pick up q stone but failed to do so owing to
the fact that it was frozen to the ground.
The boy then ran, and as he attempted to
scale the fence, Mr. Triplett threw stick,
striking The boy in the face, fracturing
the nasal and frontal bones, aud causing his
brains to ooze out, which resulted as already
stated. DEXTER.

The DECISIONS rendered by the U. S. SUI
preme Court yesterday in the Virginia cou'
non cases are sufficient, most reasonable men
suppose, to induce the members OF the Vir-
ginia legislature to cease all further at
tempts to invaidate Virginia coupons, and
to try to make the best terms possible with
the holders Of such coupons. When all sorts
of State taxes and licenses, and all other sorts
of State dues can be paid by simple tender
of coupons, and when those coupons can be
sold and bought at cheap rates in the
open markets, it will be strange it all
the States revenue be not soon paid
with deprecated coupons. Why not then
fund the coupons with the principal OF the
debt in long bonds at low rate OF interest,

Ireland.

In the House of Commons yesterday even.
ing Mr.. Balfour moved the first reading of
the Irish Criminal Law Amendment bill.
After discussing the state of Ireland, he said
the government proposed to abolish the
Jury system altogether for certain classes
of crime, giving the magistrate jurisdiction,
with power TO impose maximum penalty
of six months Imprisonment in cases Of
criminal conspiracy boycotting, rioting, as
sault on officers Of the law, forcible and un
lawful possession, and in case of Indictment
of the foregoing ofenses. The bill also
gave the government power 10 change The
venue of trial of graver cflerse. The gov
eminent felt the difficulty connoc.ed with
the abolition of trial by jury in Ireland, and
therefore. proposed that the Attorneys Gen
eral of England and Ireland in cases of
grave crimes should certify when fairer
trial could be had il England, when under
the same conditions as in case of change
of venue in Ireland, the trial should be held
in England Irish counsel, he added, we're
to be allowed to appear in English courts
and the State would provide the necessary
funds for the conveyance of both witnesses
and lawyers Purely political ofenses,
such as treason, felony and seditious
libel were excluded from the provisions of
the bill. The crimes triable in Eugland were
murder, attempt to murder, aggravated
crimes of violence and arson. In all cases
the bill applied only to proclaimed districts.
The Viceroy would have further powers to
proclaim dangerous societies found to be dis.
turbing peace and order. A proclamation
directed against a society would be submit
ted to Parliament within seven days after
issuance, and if Parliament condemned it,
the proclamation would be dropped. He
concluded by declaring that it was in the
cause of liberty that the government asked
the House to break the yoke under which
Ireland was groaning. Mr.. Dillon said
either he would leave q country where no
Irishmap could live..unless helived likes slave
or if the people were willing, he would be
proud and happy to lead them in battle
The measure could ouly result in causing
increased disorganizAtion and driving the
people back to the horrors of former years.

THE OLD report that Mr.. Blaine is really
a Catholic, but will not so declare himself
until he shall be elected President, lest such
declaration operate q .ainst him, has been
revived by some of his friends. But they
must be very foolish friends, from whom
Mr.. Blaine should pray to DO delivered,
as such report must be injurious. IL GER
tainly cannot help him among Professionals.
and just as certainly must it iojure him
among Catholics, for he must BIO an unenvl'
able member of The Catholic Church who
doesn't despise man believing in that
church and yet too much ithuenced by
worldly matters to avow that belief. A
denial of political belief is, nowadays, con-
donable +; but denial of religious belief, in
this land of liberty, is an oflenss too gross
10 be forgiven, even by men.

TIE RISE in wages in England from the
time free trade was established there to the
present shows as great ratio as that In
this country from the time the existing pro-
tective tariff went into operation, and that,
too, though England is an old and densely

employment is crowded, while here, owing
to the immense expause of cheap land, and
the comparative sparseneas of population
labor in large portions of the country Is al

though knowing this IS we'll as any body

Element can be effected by conceding even
more than the Riddleberger bill, to give it

it, and the people will uphold them in it.

for policy sake, if nothing else, they should
do something. The democratic party now

discharged from custody by Judge Bond of the
United States Circuit Court for the Eastern Dis
trict of Virginia. sitting as circuit judge in cham
bers at Baltimore. The State of Virginia. through
its taller, appealed from Judge Bonds decision to
the Supreme Court This court holds that the act

court, ard that the decision of circuit judge sit
ting in chambers is not decision of the court,
even although such judge may order the papers
